About My Clients
Is the communication in your relationship missing the mark? Do you feel unheard, unappreciated, or disregarded? Is the hierarchy in your family unbalanced and you feel your life lacks meaning? Loving yourself and feeling empowered in your relationships can create a positive shift. I work with couples, families, individuals, and teenagers struggling with communication issues, trauma, anxiety, intimacy, and adjustments to transitions in their lives. I am EMDR trained and LGBTQ+ informed.
My Background and Approach

I am trained in discernment counseling for couples on the brink and mixed agenda couples , active listening techniques, rebuilding trust, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, premarital counseling, DBT and IFS. I am EMDR trained and skilled in case management, treatment planning, and helping my clients with resourcing. If you are reading this, you are taking the first step towards healing. Finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I listen with empathy and help my clients find their voice and speak their truth. Evening appointments available in person and online. The solutions are there. Let's find them together!
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I help clients identify their best hopes for each session and tailor treatment plans to the individual, family, or couple. I actively listen to your story to determine what difference would it make in your life if your best hopes came true. My interventions and techniques empower clients to form their solutions and detach from the problem(s). I trained in London under Chris Iveson and practice Solution-Focused Family Therapy. I studied Narrative Therapy in London at The Institute of Narrative Therapy & I am EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing - EMDRIA) trained. I help clients move from the problem to the solution in relationships, couples, & families. I co-authored a book, Marriage and Family Therapy, A Practice-Oriented Approach (edited by Linda Metcalf, Ph.D) in 2023. I have worked with chemo and cancer patients, palliative care, and all relationship issues. Let's work together to find exceptions, build resiliency, and achieve your preferred future.
